3-Headed Shark Attack (2015)
Z list movie
I find the 1950's B movies amusing and watch out for the goofs but this one almost defies belief, I have never seen anything so bad, from the overacting (very badly) to the title review about a cruise ship, it was a small boad that should only operate on a river and a small one at that.
Repeated use of the same shots, land appearing when they are supposed to be miles from land, a "cruise" ship that is half sunk and then back afloat. This is a typical teen angst movie where all the cast are screaming wimps, with the exception of the gung ho suicide squad. 30 minutes towards the end, I am "watching" it now, all the boats have self repaired. Gung Ho has been caught from behind by this abysmal excuse for SFX, no continuity, the script? I can't write the words to describe it. I see the macho women have finally taken command and little wimp boy barks orders as 3 head has now morphed into 5 head. This appears to have been a badly produced Greenpeace production as it keeps going on and on and on about the pollution and how this laughable mutated predator is attracted to it. I have to change channels now as I cannot bear any more teen angst about trying to save their friends and the world when they don't have the skills to do either and especially not a movie. I having given it any stars but will probably be required to give it one and it doesn't even deserve that.
MacGyver: Trumbo's World (1985)
Plaigarism
This is a straight copy of The Naked Jungle movie (1954), even having some of the stock footage from it. It had even more stereotypes in it than the original, which did at least have an excuse for the time it was made. This show can sometimes be formulaic but this episode really lets them down. I am sure that they have more than enough good scriptwriters without lifting a movie plot in almost its entirety. I get the impression that they were over budget and filled the schedule with a cheap filler episode, common US TV network problem, unfortunately using the minimum of actors and crew shows up, as was done with an episode of Enterprise.
